Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

“Will telling Luke help Leia? Have you thought about the consequences of doing so?" Although Jack knew that Luke

was already aware that Leia had returned, he still looked at Queenie seriously and told her the consequences she

might have to face if she did so.

"Of course, I know that! Dear, Leia is our daughter. You may be able to steel yourself, but I can't. There's a chance

that Luke might send Leia back to New York if I tell him, but I won't allow that to happen. If he insists on doing so, I'll

get down on my knees and beg him to spare Leia in consideration of me being Bea's biological mother. As long as

he's willing to spare Leia, we can publicly look for volunteers for Leia..." Queenie's eyes were bloodshot while

talking. She was getting emotional because she knew that this was Leia's last resort.

Disappointment could be seen in Jack's eyes as looking for voluntary donors for Leia may be useful, but would not

he be the one to take the fall in the end?

If Leia received someone else's liver, he, as her father, would owe someone a favor that had to be returned

someday!

That person may even affect his decision-making in the future.

He used to be secretly glad that Leia's problem was her liver, so she did not have to wait for the donor to die to get

the organ. Someone could donate their liver even when they were alive and well.

Now, he changed his mind.

If he was indebted to a dead person, he would never be able to return the favor, but if he was indebted to someone

alive, he may need to spend a whole lifetime paying off that debt.

However, a parent's love was unconditional. Even after everything Leia had done to Queenie, she was still not

disappointed in Leia.

Jack was helpless. What else could he say under these circumstances?

The maid walked over and told them, "Mr. and Mrs. Norman, Mr. Crawford is here."

As soon as Queenie heard that, she hurriedly wiped away the tears in the corner of her eyes and glanced at Jack as

she said, "Even if you're not willing to help Leia, I can't just leave my daughter to die."

Jack heaved a sigh.

Luke walked in while carrying a bag of health supplements along with a bag of tea leaves. He did not have too big of

a reaction when he saw the couple. Instead, he just habitually greeted them, "Father-inlaw, Mother-in-law, these are

the health supplements and tea I brought for you."

Queenie chuckled and shook her head. "You could've just come here without bringing anything with you. Why did

you bring over so many things?"

"It's been a while since I've come over to visit, so I brought some things as a token of respect in place of Bea." Luke

handed the two bags to the maid.

After receiving the bags, the maid looked at Jack and Queenie. "Mr. and Mrs. Norman, would you like to eat now?"

"Not yet. Luke, come with me to my study," said Jack as he wanted to tell him about Queenie's plan in advance.

"If you have something to talk about, do it after dinner. Let's eat first. Otherwise, the food won't taste good when

it's cold," Queenie said hurriedly as she was afraid that Jack would say something to Luke to make him not help

Leia.

Jack wanted to say something but did not.

After assessing the situation, Luke knew what Queenie wanted to talk to him about. Unfortunately, Luca was right.

He then nodded and said, "Mother-in-law is right. Let's eat first."

Jack could not refuse. Since Luke had long known about Leia's return, Leia was already considered lucky that Luke

had yet to take any action.

Besides, Bianca's kidnapping and everything else Bianca had to suffer after that had something to do with Leia.

Moreover, Bianca was his biological daughter. Even if he had raised Leia for more than 20 years, it still angered

him.

Needless to say, Bianca was the love of Luke's life, while Leia was just a passerby to him.

Therefore, he understood if Luke wanted to deal with Leia. Plus, after what Leia had done to Queenie, he would

even be supportive of Luke's decision.

After the three of them walked into the dining room and sat down, Queenie then told Luke to help himself.

The maid brought out the bottle of wine that had been decanted, so Queenie instructed, "Pour us a glass each."

"Yes, Mrs. Norman." The maid then brought three wine glasses.

Luke said, "Mother-in-law, I drove here, so I can't drink."

Queenie froze as she thought that it would be easier for her to talk if there was wine. However, after Luke's

statement, she had to drop the idea.

"Since you can't drink, then let's put the wine away," she said resignedly.

After receiving her orders, the maid took the wine back into the kitchen.

Since no kids were there to make a fuss, the dinner table was rather quiet.

Jack saw that Queenie was hesitant to talk, so he asked with concern, "Luke, I heard that you've bought the Hilton

family's company?"

"I did. We're going through the formalities right now," said Luke.

"Good. Although the Hilton family can't hold themselves up anymore, their company's prospects are still pretty

good," said Jack. When the Leia and Brody incident caused quite a ruckus, he had looked into them.

The Hilton family was not bad, and they were a good match for Leia.

Leia was the one being ridiculous, and she took them for granted. Moreover, the past two generations of the Hilton

family were known to be shrewd businessmen. Now, with the black sheep of the family, Brody, they were doomed.

Jack could not help but sigh again. "It's a shame that the Hilton family was ruined by Brody. Children should be

educated correctly and not spoon-fed."

Not only was his statement for Luke to hear but for Queenie as well.

He believed that Leia turned out this way mainly because she was spoiled at home, not only by Queenie but by his

parents too.

"The company's outlook is indeed great, but things started to head south after Brody was put in charge," said Luke.

If Brody had been willing to delegate responsibilities and hire a manager to run the company, it would not have

ended up in his hands.

Now that the acquisition had been made, he could revive the company and bring it back to life.

"I believe in you." Jack expressed his confidence in Luke.

"By the way, Luke, how are the three kids doing?" Queenie asked about her grandchildren as an excuse to take part

in the conversation. Then, she intended to ask about Bianca before bringing up Leia.

"Lanie and the others are very good kids. They're doing well in school too," said Luke. The three children Bianca

gave him would definitely be part of the elite when they grew up.

"Good to hear that. Bea will be at ease even though she's abroad..." Queenie nodded and took a sip of her soup,

then asked again, "Have you heard from Bea recently? She would text me occasionally, but every time I ask when

she'll come back, she'll stop replying to me.."

"She's still studying abroad in different places, so she's not coming back for New Year's," Luke lied through his teeth.

Besides, he could not tell her that Luca was actually Bianca.

Queenie was not good at pretending, so Jack could know about this, but not Queenie.

Jack helped himself to a piece of meat. He did not think much of Luke's words as he knew that their daughter was

right by their side.
